@Hayleylou89 how are u? Thought I’d update and tell you that we have noticed a massive difference with the hcg! This will be week 5/6 for him and when reading up on it it says it takes that length off time to kick in. We didn’t see any benefit last cycle. He’s more energy, moods are lifted and his drive and stamina have definitely returned lol

2020wish · 04/07/2020 16:50

@VP91x fingers crossed the soy iso work. I read up on them and seen good things for women with cycles similar to yours so hopefully. I decided against then for me as my cycles have went back to normal(I think).

@SmileyT aw haha well at least u get some time to urself lol I’ve booked me and Dh away next weekend for my birthday. So looking forward to that after these few months

SmileyT · 04/07/2020 16:42

@MichT4 glad you told your sis and she will help you, hope you have fun tonight 🥳 I will definitely have your back throughout x

@VP91x yeah just got in from work, was actually quite nice as I get so much admin done on a Saturday because most people don't know I'm working and don't bother me 👌🏾 lucky OH getting relegated, at least it wasn't during FW... yeah at could definitely have been a hormone dip but you know me I'm just going for my positive thinking about next cycle so I don't get too hyped this week and can just get on with it. Let's see what happens next weekend, although I'm still hopeful for August for some reason. How was the rest of your day? Glad you enjoyed Frozen, controversial but I loved some of the songs in this one more than 1 - although 'do you want to build a snowman' is still my fave 🎶

@Rb486 I definitely screenshotted that post with the positive affirmations they are lovely and will definitely use them if I ever get my bfp x

@Northernsoul90 yeah if you've got up it won't be your BBT and might not give you a clear pattern x

@Bellabubble yeah I think all the apps take a few days as an ovulation shift is determined by 3 higher temps than the previous 6 so it doesn't know whether it's a sustained shift for 3 days x

@Hayleylou89 ahh didn't realise you weren't allowed your hubby into your scans the ones by me think partners can go now, hopefully this will change by you by your later scans x

So I've officially lost DP to the pub but that means I have the sofa and TV to myself until he comes home drunk at some point 😂

VP91x · 04/07/2020 16:37

@2020wish definitely didn't ovulate last cycle. AF came after 5/6 days of funny bleeding/spotting. On CD6 now. Didn't go private as my GP referred me for an ultrasound so going to wait for that appt. If it takes ages I will rebook the private appt. Taking soy isoflavones this cycle to hopefully bring forward ovulation (and it actually happen)! Xx

2020wish · 04/07/2020 15:57

@Northernsoul90 fingers crossed it was true ovulation. Maybe just keep DTD when you feel like it and keep urself covered. U never know x

@VP91x how are things with you? Have u sussed your ovulation out yet or still having really long cycles? Did you go private?

VP91x · 04/07/2020 15:48

@SmileyT we ended up watching Frozen 2 this afternoon, just finished it was sooo good!!

VP91x · 04/07/2020 15:47

@MichT4 haha aw that's so good you have someone else to talk to about it. Im sure she is so excited for you!

@Northernsoul90 the CB sticks when they are new or have reset themselves after 48hrs will always show a blank circle the first time you use them because it uses that as a baseline to then give you your flashing /static smiley when it detects another surge. If you got a static the other day it's likely that you ovulated. It would only have gone to static straight away if your LH was super high which seems like it was 🥰x

@2020wish hey! CD6 here, taking soy, drinking my juices and waiting until testing time on OPKs xx

@GraceG26 so sorry! I thought I had everyone. Ooh is it worth it then? What is the app like with all the data?xx

OP posts:
Northernsoul90 · 04/07/2020 15:09

@2020wish I’m glad you are feeling relaxed this month, it all gets a bit much sometimes doesn’t it. I’ll have to try some Pom and grapefruit juice will pick some up!

No it was the first cb I did this month and went straight to static. I did some one step as well which I don’t think I had a peak on the app said high but not peak and then low today. Again I’m not convinced though, not holding out hope of conceiving really this month I was just more wanting to know if I would ovulate and get af soon as a signal of my body getting back to normal xx

2020wish · 04/07/2020 13:53

@Northernsoul90 where u getting flashy smileys or the empty circle before u got ur static?

I’ve decided to take a back seat approach this month lol so I just tested this morning first time and it was neg. not tempting anymore either. Feel so relaxed

@HopeForRainbowbaby I’m
On the grapefruit juice also lol must get some Pom juice for after ovulation where do U get it from

GraceG26 · 04/07/2020 13:53

@VP91x - please add me! I've just started using the OvuSense and it's incredible how it measures your BBT. I think I may have had the ovulation dip yesterday. Just waiting to see what happens over the next couple of days. I'm now CD16.
This is my second month trying after a molar pregnancy at the end of last year. Prior to that I also had two MC. My husband and I have been trying since August of last year. Fingers crossed and baby dust to everyone it happens for us all soon 🤞🏼😘

Eli2020 · 04/07/2020 13:53

@HopeForRainbowbaby say what 😃 what's plum juice good for? 😁 I like plum jam but don't think it will have the sale effect will it 😅

HopeForRainbowbaby · 04/07/2020 13:43

And plum juice;)

HopeForRainbowbaby · 04/07/2020 13:43

Welcome to new ladies on this chat ! I'm sorry about your losses. Biggest hugs 😘

@2020wish 10CD. No ovulation yet. Drinking pomegranate and grapefruit juice hehe

Northernsoul90 · 04/07/2020 13:41

@2020wish I’m quite confused as to where I am at the moment - I’m 26 days past mva so could be seen as cd26. I was told I had follicles on my ovaries on Wednesday so would probably ovulate within the next week so I started doing opks on Thursday and then got a cb static smiley on Friday but I was sceptical about this as I’m still getting faint positives on pregnancy tests so not sure if it’s just getting confused. Anyway I have a second clear blue test monitor thing so did another today and that was just the circle so maybe I could have ovulated? Who knows? really I said I wouldn’t properly track anything until after my first af so I suppose it’s just a waiting game. I only dtd a couple of times in the past week or so so if I did ovulate I doubt I will have caught so just want af to hurry up really so I can track properly 🤞🏼

How are you? Have you started testing or will you wait a few days?

2020wish · 04/07/2020 13:24

Hi everyone!! Congrats @Dipsy77!! I definitely see that line!!

CD12 for me today. Where is everyone else at

Lollol86 · 04/07/2020 13:04

@VP91x she was really happy, she couldn’t really celebrate much because I snuck to tell her when everyone else was nearby 😂. It just helps to talk about it, and now I feel terrible for not telling my mum 🙄
It’s weird telling people now because they are expecting it more whereas last time she literally froze as she couldn’t believe it 😂

VP91x · 04/07/2020 12:36

@AC2020 welcome 🥰 so sorry you have recently gone through a loss, hopefully this is a good sign for you again 🤞 xx

@Rb486 that post was lovely! Such a good thing to read through.

@Northernsoul90 not sure if you ended up taking your temp, but yeah it would be skewed. You could always pop it down and make it as abnormal xx

@Bellabubble that's what I didn't like about NC. It took ages to confirm ovulation! I would definitely say you ovulated yesterday with that temp rise today.xx

@MichT4 aw amazing you told her, what did she say!? And yeah definitely sounds like leftover stuff coming out 🥰

@chloedancer897 fab that you're now in the TWW but yeah definitely the worst. Once you get to 7dpo it's a nightmare.

@Lollol86 oh sounds so lovely have a fab weekend!!

Lollol86 · 04/07/2020 12:31

@Northernsoul90 oh wow that is a drive, I’m in Swindon so to get to the Lake District it would be about 5 hours. We usually go to Cornwall but opted for Devon this time.

Northernsoul90 · 04/07/2020 12:20

@Lollol86 I’m the same with Devon for me that would be a 7/8 hour drive! 🥴 would love to go though it looks beautiful

Lollol86 · 04/07/2020 12:15

Thank you all.

@Northernsoul90 I’d love to go to the Lake District, that’s quite a drive from where I am though.

Northernsoul90 · 04/07/2020 12:01

That sounds likely @MichT4 probably just some leftover secretions x

@Lollol86 enjoy! That sounds lovely. I keep meaning to look at booking a cottage for a weekend in August maybe just to get away and have a bit of a break. I’m thinking Lake District x

MichT4 · 04/07/2020 12:01

Thank you @Northernsoul90. I know I need to relax and enjoy it, and reading the commandments is so helpful. Think it’s just an adjustment too - can’t quite believe it xx

MichT4 · 04/07/2020 11:58

@chloedancer897 yes it is a nice distraction, and telling my sister helps to be honest.

@Hayleylou89 I think it depends where you are as to whether they let OH in. I’ll have to see what they say here.
Glad you got to move your appointment, not long to wait xx

Northernsoul90 · 04/07/2020 11:58

@MichT4 just read back through and seen your previous post about cm, I think that’s perfectly normal and everyone’s pregnancy and body is different. I know you will and it’s so much easier said than done but please try not to fret too much - keep reading @Rb486 commandments post ❤️ Hope you are okay. Use this space to share you worries
